The power of silence

Noone will be allowed to take their frustrations out on me, because they are upset with other aspects of their lives, because they aren't in touch with their own spirituality. In an air of tension of frustrations, people are impaired. They get caught up with what's not happening to their desire and they trample on everyone else's dreams and happiness. They try to lodge their depressive state by showing antagonism and bitterness. And they do not mind their words and behaviour. They become bullies to those who choose to keep quiet. They threaten and create such a negative environment, one literally feels sick. This kind of heightened spiritual state of negative forces drains anyone in the surroundings. Sometimes, when enough has been said, it is better to be quiet and reflect. Go in seclusion, away from the maddening crowd, so to say. Sometimes, in an agitated state of excitement or after being in company of others and picking up the aura or effects, people do not realise what they say at a point or moment. They may say something that suddenly upsets another. In a quiet state, they ponder and come back with an excuse or variant of the original story. Suffice to deduce, people go through different cycles of spiritual states which are inconsistent, because they do not make use of the power of awareness within themselves, to keep themselves stable. We, on the other hand, are always trying to be aware of the moment, and try not to allow the effects of inconsistent spiritual behaviour to effect our space. Being calm in body, mind and soul is a practice. The inconsistency of spiritual behaviour is a burden to carry and a weight around others.... We cannot allow their inconsistencies to drain us. We have the power to avert, that power is called silence. ~lorrainenur@2013
